I agree stability is essential

These videos with Dr. Cutress are always a treat, hope you do more in the future!

I like Will's interview style. And he's asking the questions I wanted to ask

JEDEC is based on 1.1V, comparing 1.2-1.35v with xmp profiles. 1.1v with 5600 is not bad at all, when you have battery or power constraints.

Ian is *_EVERYWHERE_* lately, and I'm here for it!

Thanks guys

Very informative. Total thumbs up.👍

Remember, RAM manufacturing is stuck at about a 18nm node size, smaller and the capacitive memory cells become unreliable. This is a major bottleneck they've been trying to get around for some time now. It's not looking good.

Where does error correction come into play on these analyses.

Right on…

I have a aorus z790 xtreme I have bought about 20 ram kits that are on my qvl and only 2 have worked after full testing from 8000 to 6800 mhz and 6800 has 20% chance of working

All this interesting trivia is why we should make Dr. Tech Tech Potato the MVP 😆🥔. But seriously though, interesting perspective about "why things are this way"! 👍👍

DDR6 to be launched in 2024/25 Samsung has already announced that it is currently working on finalizing the DDR6 memory standard together with the other JEDEC members from the circle of DRAM and SoC manufacturers. expect ddr6 in 2026? things always take longer...DDR6 RAM is expected to offer transfer speeds reaching up to 12,800Mbps on standard modules, with potential speeds of up to 17,000Mbps for overclocked versions. Moreover, it's designed to support four memory channels per module, doubling what DDR5 offers. - yeah bring quad chan back - it would really help

Dr. Cutress' beard is a mismatch to his knowledge level.

xmp is a mess. Jedec should have many more aggressive specs.

Will looks like the Caucasian version of Gordon lol

Intel and AMD instantly void your CPU/APU warranty if you uses XMP/EXPO, better read the fine print.

+50% speed increase where, memory benchmarks? The difference between DDR4 2400 vs 3600 is something like 5% in games and even less in other tasks.

Just gotta love the PhDs that refer to themselves and require you to refer to them as "Doctor" outside an academic setting. Always hilarious.

Jedec is there so mb manufacturerer can sell terrible motherboards and make sure you get NO warranty at all on Intel or Amd cpus with terribles imc. Cause is ram pcb traces layouts are bottom tier trash. Lots of noise cause no shielding, uneven length on the signal traces, no grounding layer above or beneath etc.. You can buy a 780usd 14900k which belongs in the trash not hitting 7400Mhz ram speed (which is needed to keep ut with the Amd cache variant..). You get 6000Mhz on one board and 8000Mhz on an Asus Encore. AMD fell fell flat on their face, barely hitting 6000Mhz and Intel expected harder competition through early rumours so they aimed for 7-8000Mhz. Amd didn't have the dev team to make 7000Mhz+ so they went the safe cache route instead. They sell us trash cpus because of the longstanding cpu duopoly. If only nVidia would come into the cpu market Intel would be bankrupt within few years. Oh not expensive nVidia, I dont give a ... the 4090 is 60% better than than Amd alternative. They've sandbagged us for 10 years on the cpu side. My 4790k oc'd are faster loading sites than my oc'd 14900k. The situation is just mindboggling at the moment. Why arent you guys testing basic stuff like loading sites on Chrome?!
